I have been very bad about posting about race and anti-racism lately, and even worse with following discussions online.
But basically, my response would be what Deepa says. Yes and yes and yes. And that is precisely why I've found so much comfort in immersing myself in Asian mainstream pop culture, even though that pop culture has a lot that could be changed. It is just so good to find something that's focused on POC, to have other narratives and other stories, to have an entirely different default to draw upon.

Taiwan: Yeah... my roommate who is Taiwanese - she says that she would not give up her childhood for anything - if she has kids she'd bring them up in Taiwan, and MAYBE send them to Singapore (For the English but still having a mostly respectful Chinese education) before sending them to anywhere else for university.
